The National Association for Year-Round EducationSan Diego, California 92111
The National Association for Year-Round Education (NAYRE) serves as a clearinghouse for information on year-round education and the broader subject of time and learning. Year-round education reorganizes the traditional 9-month school calendar to shorten the 3-month summer vacation and allow for shorter breaks throughout the year. This pattern more closely reflects the way in which students actually learn and reduces the occurrence of summer learning loss. NAYRE was organized 30 years ago by a group of committed educators who believed in the future of education. They knew that it is impossible to prepare students to compete in an ever increasing global economy while educating them on an agrarian calendar. NAYRE is a 501(3)(c) non-profit association. We are funded by our members. Each year NAYRE sponsors an annual conference on time and learning. NAYRE can also provide consultants or speakers to districts who are interested in reorganizing their school calendars to better enhance student learning. Visit the NAYRE home page. |
